Azelphur#php is being useless, anyone know why this is returning nothing? http://pastebin.com/XCSvkWkR19:03
Azelphurit should return some json saying the character was not found, but I get literally nothing from it19:04
Azelphurreturning 404 and file_get_contents ignores it :)19:10
DJonesikonia: Yep, ours did that, I went through a rebuild process and it fixed it19:21

StevenRok. So the speech dispatcher thingy is just awesome.19:28
AlanBellStevenR: what are you doing with it?19:29
StevenRAlanBell: marvelling at just how far this global community has come.19:29
StevenRAlanBell: I'd simply never encountered anything apart from "Jaws" that did that, and was "just there"19:30
AlanBellso are you using orca?19:31
StevenRAlanBell: just playing with spd-say19:31
AlanBellif you know how to use jaws, orca might be quite similar, it reads the gtk stuff on screen and passes it to speech dispatcher19:32
StevenRAlanBell: no, I've never actually used jaws. I just used to support a blind kid at a previous job, and she used a laptop with jaws19:33
StevenR(I couldn't keep up with her jaws-reading-speed either!)19:34
StevenRAlanBell: I jsut didn't know the software existed by default, built in, just there, ready and working.19:34
AlanBellyeah, amazing how fast people can listen, espeak (default speech dispatcher synth) can go very fast too19:35
StevenRgrrr. usb has partially packed up again19:42
StevenRyay. INFO: task lsusb:13962 blocked for more than 120 seconds.19:44
StevenRall I want to do is watch a dvd19:45
daubersLo20:08
* StevenR wishes the usb subsystem was more stable20:15
StevenRI'm wondering if there's an alternative kernel I can try :S20:16
penguin42SR: What broke on you?20:20
StevenRpenguin42: most things. usb devices just sort of "stop"... Like I plugged in a usb cd drive, and it wasn't detected, and things like lsusb started failing20:22
StevenRor rather stalling. I get kernel errors20:22
penguin42StevenR: There is a known bug with unplugging USB cd drives that's still being fixed20:23
StevenRpenguin42: I didn't unplug it20:23
StevenRI plugged it in20:23
penguin42Have you got the dmesg?20:23
StevenRpenguin42: yeah20:25
penguin42pastebin?20:26
StevenRpenguin42: yeah, I'm just scrolling back through the file to find the start of the problems20:26
StevenRpenguin42: it kindof went into printk-firehose mode.20:27
penguin42yeh the start is the interesting bit20:27
StevenRpenguin42: http://paste.ubuntu.com/655298/20:33
=== Pendulum_ is now known as Pendulum
StevenRpenguin42: the last lot of errors (the can't reset device repeating error just went on and on)20:34
penguin42StevenR: Hmm not seen anyone with that one before; ehci_hcd 0000:00:1d.0: force halt; handshake ffffc90001856024 00004000 00004000 -> -11020:35
penguin42StevenR: I think that's the nasty - everything goes downhill from there20:35
StevenRpenguin42: yeah20:35
StevenRpenguin42: and ehci failing would explain why everything else follows... the question is.... how to make it not do this :)20:45
penguin42StevenR: What kernel are you running20:46
StevenRpenguin42: the generic one I believe. hang on, I'll check20:47
penguin42StevenR: Please file a bug for that, and point out that happened when you plugged it in (not when unplugged) -  also you could try the mainline ppa: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds20:47
StevenRyeah, it's the mainline one20:48
StevenRpenguin42: is ubuntu-bug gonna pull out the older dmesg, or would it be better to file it "manually" ?20:49
penguin42StevenR: No harm in adding the attachment20:49
StevenRbah. sorry, it's the generic kernel20:49
penguin42StevenR: Yeh, be careful but try that mainline kernel - it's as new as they get20:50
StevenRlinux-image-generic                      2.6.38.10.2520:50
StevenRpenguin42: I haven't found a good way to repeat it yet though :S20:50
penguin42StevenR: Ah that makes it hard20:50
StevenRpenguin42: I rebooted, plugged in the drive, and the dvd plays fine :)20:51
penguin42StevenR: File the bug anyway20:51
ali1234all the nasty crashes came from dvb usb20:57
ali1234this doesn't really surprise me much20:57
ali1234it looks like some device caused the port to be disabled20:58
ali1234which caused the dvb adapter to be "unplugged"20:58
ali1234and that unplugging caused the backtrace20:58
penguin42ali1234: No, the first line is the real problem20:58
ali1234yes20:58
penguin42ali1234: All the stuff afterwards I think is due to the (presumably USB dvb) getting upset20:59
ali1234and all the backtrace stuff is unrelated20:59
ali1234dvb usb has a bug where it basically does that if you unplug the device20:59
ali1234it's fixed upstream, dunno if the fix is in mainline yet21:02
StevenRthat's good to know :)21:06
ali1234not really21:08
ali1234it doesn't explain the first lines21:09
* brobostigon spots nice mail to the mailing list :), re: pcworld.21:13

AlanBellyeah, it does that sometimes21:47
